Invention facilitates automatic and transparent network split-routing and forwarding automation without any manual changes to configurations or architectures. Simplifies connectivity and management of all IoT, M2M, and VPN deployments.

The proprietary technology fills-in gaps in existing technologies in the way that applications and devices obtain a presence and communicate on a network, and eliminates the need of additional networking services to ensure connectivity.

“IoT and VPN are driving connectivity based networking,” said Scott Whittle, President of IP Technology Labs. “The proliferation of IoT and remote connections demands efficient, deterministic, and low cost connectivity. IpTL has always recognized that the network should serve the application. Now IoT and VPN users don’t have to support bloated and out-of-date routing protocols in order to connect, communicate, and control.”

By modifying LAN based protocols over the WAN, the invention permits connectivity and communications without requiring expensive routers or complex configurations. Additionally, split-routing permits local traffic to egress locally while maintaining end-to-end connectivity for tunnel based applications. This is particularly important for IoT devices which are typically specialized and lack the network stack or processing capabilities of larger full-featured routers and routing protocols.

As the World’s Longest Ethernet Cable™ IpTL FastLane solutions are the 4th Generation of VPN placing your LAN securely anywhere in the world while integrating all your wireless and wired devices seamlessly. Using any Internet connection an enterprise can create its own virtualized, private, and secure LAN network. IpTL appliances work especially well in network environments VPN, WAN, and IoT applications where NAT, Nested-NAT, or Dynamic-IP/DHCP is present on both ends of a link.

IP Technology Labs is the worldwide designer and manufacturer of the FastLane™ IP and Ethernet network appliances for plug-and-play VPN, SD-WAN/WAN, and IoT connectivity. The leader in connectivity based networking, IpTL solves challenges imposed by infrastructure limitations for telecommunications and information technology users; IpTL simplifies, lowers the cost, and enables the connection of network devices and services over any LAN or WAN infrastructure. With products made in the USA, IpTL offers solutions for every network.

IP Technology Labs, the leading provider of 4th Generation VPN connectivity, WAN/SD-WAN, and IoT secure networking appliances, today announces that it has been independently verified to pass all PCI DSS 3.2 elements without indicating any vulnerabilities.

The Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) Standards Council sets forth the Data Security Standards (“DSS”) for all entities involved in payment card processing. Recognizing the increase in threats, breaches, and exploits compliance with the PCI DSS helps to alleviate these vulnerabilities and protect cardholder data. PCI DSS 3.2 compliance is required for merchants, devices, and applications within the Cardholder Data Environment (“CDE”) for payment processing. PCI DSS 3.2 updates and obsoletes version 3.1 and takes effect in October, 2016.

“Security is more than just protecting data.” said Scott Whittle, President of IP Technology Labs. “IpTL has always led with the system in mind. With zero security vulnerabilities, our customers can deploy and audit to PCI 3.2 DSS levels with confidence. As always, we have consistently lead the industry with the best connectivity, privacy, and security. Now, confirmation from an independent lab assessment continues to strengthen what our customers already know and trust.”

One significant PCI DSS 3.2 update is the requirement to move towards better security for data-in-transit protocol standards. IpTL has had TLSv1.2 in all its appliances since it was available and has never used vulnerable SSL. Using Tenable’s Nessus™ vulnerability scanner shows that IpTL has zero critical, high, medium, or low vulnerabilities for PCI DSS 3.2 elements. A copy of the report is available here at IpTL’s website.
